Fish, I paid 27,6sumptin, can't remember without lookin. Got 4530 with ind. tires, loader(skidsteer QA) , 511 backhoe. He gave me 8-50lb. suitcase weights free. Don't know if I will ever use the weights. The dang thing weighs about a million lbs. already. Both rear tires rubbed the inside of the fenders on my trailer. When I pulled it past the center, front tires came almost completely off the ground on my F-350 4X4. Every time I touched the brakes, the front tires skidded.(the truck has a heavy elec./hyd. dump bed on it already.) I had to stop about 5 miles down the road and back the tractor up abour 3 ft. then everything was fine. I have trailer brakes but I guess they need some adjustin. I live in NE Oklahoma and have 120 acres plus I take care of a place next door for a guy in Washington state that is 2000 acres. Also help with my father-in-laws cattle ranch which is about 400 acres. We also do a little logging.(father-in-law owns a little sawmill) I worked my Botas harder than most people could imagine for 9 years and never - ever had a warranty claim(or any other problem); I hope the 4530 does half as good. Father-in-law bought a 50hp 4x4 bota a couple of weeks ago but I wanted something a little bigger. If this thing don't hold up, I will never live it down. I will try to take some pics when I get time and post them.
